At the stroke of midnight she cries. Her cries are not heard , Her cries are loudly silent, The pain creeps into her soul burning her from within, She breaks slowly inside She dies slowly inside She feels alone tonight. She reaches for death's hands in hope to find salvation , I watch her I scream for her to stop My scream is loudly silent, She cuts the last bit of hope away. I stop her but to little to late I fail to save the hope she sacrificed to find relief in a world of torture.
